I want to send the survey out to a list of recipients….

Has anyone got a guide for how to do it in outlook?

Can I paste the code direct into the SG email for email invites??

Hi Experimentus,

Are you planning on sending the HTML email through outlook, or do you want to send it though our invite tool?

If you are sending it from outlook we recommend pasting the link in the body of your email. You can get the link form your promote page.

You can *try* embedding the survey directly into the email… however you’ll get mixed results. In order to access the HTML of the email in outlook you’ll have to click Edit->Source (it may be called something something else… or you may have to toggle it on through the ‘view’ menu)

I hope this helps!

These sums are getting harder and harder :)

OK,

If I can get it to work via the SG email invite system that would be great. Can you explain how it’s done, as I tried and failed miserably… :(

Go under the ‘publishing link of your survey, and copy the entire contents of Option 3 into your clipboard (select all and then right-click and copy).
Then, under the email invites, ‘edit content’ of the email invite, change it to HTML and Text format, and in the box for the html version, click the ‘Source’ button. Then, delete everything inside the box and paste in the code you copied previously. Hit save, and now your survey’s first page will load inside as the email itself (as soon as they click submit or next page, it will have to open a browser to continue). This would be best for short, one-page surveys.
